Attachment 46598Hi all, just sat and read the whole thread .Here is one of the last photo's of Johnny Cash .I know it says amongst the posts that it was rumoured J.C. had Indian blood in him, then someone came on and said it's not true he had some Scottish .But just look at how he looks just like an old Indian in this pic. Amazing.

Terrible news.
I must say that the brother is as poetic as Johnny was. His quote in the second article has a very fluid roll to it.
I am the king of all things stupid!

New Cash album on its way. Not sure if I want to hear his 80s phase though. Also, I'm sure Johnny had a reason why it wasn't released before, so it worries me that this is just a money ploy. I could listen to him all day long, but IMHO, come on....if it was crap to begin with, keep it on the shelf.

I heard some of the songs and an interview with Johnny's son on the radio over the weekend. They're not crap. They fit in very well with the rest of his catalogue.
His son explained that they were recently discovered and he handed them over to be remastered by one of Johnny's country music legend friends. Can't remember who that was at the mo'. He shared stories of their days gone by as well.
The interview was on NPR. Anyone interested in giving it a listen oughta pop Johnny Cash into the search at npr.org.

Thanks Somechick, I may do that! I was hoping the songs were just as well done as his others. I've never met a Cash song I didn't like . I was afraid his family might do what some other celeb families have done after the person has died...just put out whatever they find lying around to make a buck. IMHO, I feel like that just cheapens the work they'd done when they were alive.

You're welcome.

and a big down south happy birthday to the man in black......would have been 83 today
To my Father. Even though you have crossed the plane, you will always be with me.
You were not just my Father, but my hero. My life has been a poor attempt to be like you
You taught me music, vocals, and how to fight. I can only hope I am half the man you are
When I close my eyes I can see you. And finally, Thank you Dad. for everything.
March 1934-July 2016
I loved any song Johnny Cash sang regardless of style and era.
Gone 15 years yesterday. Died almost the same time as John Ritter.
My Dad's favorite musical artist. Grew up listening to him. Doesn't feel like 15 years. Time is just slipping away.

"San Quentin," performed at San Quentin. My favorite JC performance.

Isn't this beautiful

My opinion is also that, besides his death, this prison concert was Johnny Cash's best career move as far as his post-mortem career is concerned.
"Man, he was so cool, he even gave a concert in a prison, see what I mean? He was so generous and open-minded".
"Elvis was fat and 42 and died on the commode."
"Liberace was a fairy who wouldn't cope with it".
"Johnny Cash sang 'Folsom Prison Blues' in Folsom Prison, this was a milestone in the history of popular music/country/RnR/whatever".
Suffice to say that I find Johnny Cash vastly over-rated :-)
I like some of his songs.
Sometimes a song (or a singer, or a group) will reach across genre lines and just grab you. For instance, I hate rap, but I like ICP.

I like the old school rap, not a fan of Tupac, or Biggie, I like Marshall Mathers aka Eminem, I am not a fan of ICP, my egg donor listened to a lot of country, I can't listen to it to this day because of her, it's like nails on a chalkboard to me. Johnny Cash I can listen to
